ADSL2+ very slow

Hi

Over the last month the ADSL2+ line I have (templestowe lower) is getting slower and slower to the point that you can't even watch Netflix on one device without it buffering consistently or loading web pages without watching the images slowly render on the screen.

 

Have rebooted, switched off - and tried multiple devices from phones to pcs but they are all slow when on the internet - whether using the ethernet or wireless.  My 4G optus mobile is faster.

 

Speed test last night had me at 0.86Mbps download, today it has been 0.96Mbps up to 2.34Mbps.  Upload of 0.36 and 0.46 when looked at twice today.

 

I can barely do work - like watching a kettle boil.  Seems like its a common issue with people.

8 hours and still no reply - doesn't surprise me - seems others experiencing same - but with a generic reply when they do.  How hard is it - its not.

 

15 secs at least for TPG page to load - back to 90s speeds.

Hi @Huskidog,

Hi Chris,

 

Thanks for sending the additional info via PM.

 

I did run a test and I'm seeing a possible line fault. It would be best if you will report it directly to Telstra so they can fix the phone line issue. As you are aware, our internet service relies on the quality of the phone line.

 

Kind regards,

Mc
